Quinten Lawrence, WR


Overview

Overview

Lawrence brings speed to the table, and plenty of it. He averaged 19.5 yards on each of his 87 receptions coming into the year, earning second-team All-Southland as a junior. Unfortunately a mid-season lower leg injury cost him a large chunk of his senior campaign; he had only 12 catches for 209 yards and a touchdown in five games this season. He did, however, play some defensive back and take his only career punt return 70 yards for a touchdown. His speed and elusiveness give him a chance to make a team as a returner and fourth receiver/cornerback if he checks out medically. Qualified for the NCAA regionals as a sprinter for the McNeese track squad. Had an arm span of 30 1/4 inches and a hand span of 8 1/4 inches at the combine.


High School

All-district, all-parish and all-Acadiana ... Lettered also in track and basketball ... Went 7-0 in high jump and was the state champion ... Also ran a leg on state champion 4x100 meter relay team ... Played point guard in basketball and made the all-parish team.

Analysis

Analysis

Positives: Adequate height and has a wiry strength. Extremely fast and quick. Eats up cushion by exploding off the line and getting on top of the corner before he knows it. Sells the outside or deep route well and cuts quickly to the inside or comes back to the ball. Catches the ball with his reliable hands, able to go outside his frame. Quick feet into and out of routes. Good vision and a naturally elusive runner with the ball in his hands. Efforts downfield blocking on quick screens and run plays. Could have impact as a returner because of his speed and willingness to go straight upfield.


Negatives: Very thin frame. Didn't face the jam much in college because FCS defenses were afraid of his speed. May struggle blocking and handling larger, physical corners downfield at the next level. Typically lined up outside for McNeese but will probably move inside in the NFL. Medical check required on his leg injury. Did not get a lot of chances to return kicks in college. Inexperienced at corner, if teams want to try him there.
